it 'will he i p )arent that n. bullet or project-y ile 'formed es s own will have great penetrating ower on account oi the herd sherp trihedre `nose which hes a drilling or boring ection in the `object which it strikes such as steel plate, and on account of the heavy rear portion which ceuses the projectile to attain greet momentum in its flight, Furthermore the sharp steel nose end the tapered forward portion of the sleeve cause the projectile to have comparatively little -frictionel resistence in the sir, and consequently the range of guns will be greater then would be the cese with bullets having rounded noses.

iisving described my invention I claim: i. In combination, o cartridge casing, and n huilet or projectile therefor, seid bullet or projectile having e forward portion of herd nisteriel, end e separate rear portion formed e softer materiel and having e 'higher speciiic gravity then the forward portion and e sleeve surrounding seid portions, said por- 'tion of herd materiel being provided with e sharp nose having s plurality of flot faces', seid nose extending beyond seid sleeve.

2. in combination, a. certridge casing and o bullet or projectile therefor, seid bullet or rrojectile consisting of o. cylindrical forward portion of herd materiel sind having e. sharp trihedrel nose, e seperate cylindrical rear portion of softer materiel. having e. higher specific gravity then the forward portion and :i sleeve surrounding' seid portions, the sharp trihedrel nose extending outwe. 'd beyond the sleeve.

8. in combination, e cartridge casing, and s bullet or4 projectile consisting of e steel forwerd portion provided with n sharp tridedrel nose, a rear portion of lead, and e. sleeve open et both ends; and holding said stoel and lead `gort-ions together.

in testimony whereof I allix my signature in the presence o1"A two Witnesses.
